Alrighty, then

These words the LORD spake unto all your assembly in the mount out of the midst of the fire, of the cloud, and of the thick darkness, with a great voice: and he added no more. And he wrote them in two tables of stone, and delivered them unto me. And it came to pass, when ye heard the voice out of the midst of the darkness, (for the mountain did burn with fire,) that ye came near unto me, even all the heads of your tribes, and your elders; And ye said, Behold, the LORD our God hath shewed us his glory and his greatness, and we have heard his voice out of the midst of the fire: we have seen this day that God doth talk with man, and he liveth. Now therefore why should we die? for this great fire will consume us: if we hear the voice of the LORD our God any more, then we shall die. For who is there of all flesh, that hath heard the voice of the living God speaking out of the midst of the fire, as we have, and lived? Go thou near, and hear all that the LORD our God shall say: and speak thou unto us all that the LORD our God shall speak unto thee; and we will hear it, and do it. And the LORD heard the voice of your words, when ye spake unto me; and the LORD said unto me, I have heard the voice of the words of this people, which they have spoken unto thee: they have well said all that they have spoken. O that there were such an heart in them, that they would fear me, and keep all my commandments always, that it might be well with them, and with their children for ever! Go say to them, Get you into your tents again. But as for thee, stand thou here by me, and I will speak unto thee all the commandments, and the statutes, and the judgments, which thou shalt teach them, that they may do them in the land which I give them to possess it. Ye shall observe to do therefore as the LORD your God hath commanded you: ye shall not turn aside to the right hand or to the left. Ye shall walk in all the ways which the LORD your God hath commanded you, that ye may live, and that it may be well with you, and that ye may prolong your days in the land which ye shall possess.-Deuteronomy 5:22-33***Sometime after his 123-year-old brother Aaron died and was buried upon Mount Hor, Moses began proclaiming his last messages to the Israelites. Forty years earlier, the Lord God began giving Moses commands for leading the Israelites away from Egyptian slavery. The divinely inspired Scriptures of the Holy Bible reveal that Lord God sent 80-year-old Moses and 83-year-old Aaron to speak to the Israelite elders and to Pharaoh, the king of Egypt. Pharaoh refused to let the Israelites leave. After the Lord God brought the 10th and final plague upon Pharaoh and Egypt, Pharaoh told Moses and Aaron to get the Israelites and their animals away from the Egyptians. Before Moses and Aaron led the Israelites away from Egypt, across the divinely parted Red Sea, and into the desert wilderness of Shur, the Egyptians gave the Israelites an abundance of valuable goods, fulfilling the words that the Lord God spoke to Abraham (Abram the Hebrew) over 600 years earlier. In the desert wilderness of Sinai, in the region of Mount Sinai, the Lord God gave Moses commands for consecrating the Israelites. When the Israelites were consecrated and the appointed time arrived, the Israelites saw thunder, lightning, a thick cloud, and the fire wherein the Lord God descended upon Mount Sinai. The Israelites heard the sounds of a trumpet and heard the voice of the Lord God proclaim the Ten Commandments to them, and the Lord God began giving Moses judgments for the Israelites. When Moses was alone with the Lord God on Mount Sinai for 40 days and nights, the Lord God gave Moses commands for an offering to be received, and described and showed to Moses the sacred items to be made, and gave Moses 2 stone tablets whereupon were written, with the finger of God, the Ten Commandments. During the 40-year journey to Canaan, the Promised Land, the Lord God gave Moses, and sometimes Aaron, judgments, statutes, and laws for the Israelites. Joshua was Moses' assistant and successor. After Moses wrote and gave the Book of the Law to the priests, and wrote the song that the Lord God commanded him to write, and taught the song, with Joshua, to the Israelites, 120-year-old Moses went upon Mount Nebo. The Lord God showed Moses the Promised Land, and Moses died and was divinely buried. Joshua led the Israelites across the divinely parted Jordan River and onto the land that the Lord God promised to give to Abraham, and to Abraham's son Isaac, and to Isaac's youngest fraternal twin son Jacob (Israel), and to their descendants. Over 1,300 years after Joshua died and was buried in his tribe's portion of the Promised Land, Jesus the Christ, the Son of God, was born. Jesus was conceived of the Holy Spirit in the womb of Mary, a virgin, and Jesus was born into the tribe of Jacob's 4th born son Judah to Mary and her husband Joseph when Mary was a virgin.-Genesis 11:26-50:26, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers 20:1-29, 27:12-23, Deuteronomy, Joshua 1:1-4:24, 23:1-24:33, 1 Chronicles 1:1-34, 2:1-17, 3:1-24, 6:1-81, 7:20-29, Matthew, Mark, Luke, John, Acts 1:1-26
